Persistence hunters, including wolves, dogs, spiders and humans- give continual chase until their prey collapses with exhaustion! In March 2011, Daniil Korotkikh, a 13-year-old Russian boy- retrieved a message in a bottle from the Baltic Sea that had been thrown there by a German boy 24 years earlier! See the Grand Canyon... But not this way! On April 25, 2011, a man accidentally drove off the rim of the Grand Canyon in Arizona, plunging 200 feet before being snagged by a pine tree, he got out and was able to climb back up to the road!
